Re: [Official 2008 Game Design] New Technology Discussions

I would suggest in improvement is sensors, especially the gyro. In aim high we had some trouble with it, as it restarted its values tozero every time it the robot hit something, or justt bumped. I believe adding some sort of an anti-shock system to the sensors will solve this.

More ideas:
*possability for 2 CMUcam on a robot, ofcourse if it could help the game. (one camera tracking two lights isn't always that good).
*A camera that transports image to the driver.
*Omni wheels included in kit (or cheeper to be ordered).
*A cahnge in the custom chasis provided, or more aluminum profiles included in the kit, so we have sevral options of designing the cahsis, withot having to find out-of-kit parts.
*USB-chicklet included in kit of parts.
